Fairy, please don't do this!

Gu Jinzhao didn't explain further: "Whether that's the case or not, we'll find out when they return."

The valley is the stronghold of the Green Gang, so it's normal that there are so many powerful people there.

Otherwise, in the game, the sect disciples who accept this trial mission will not send a message to the sect for help.

One hour later!

Lin Qingci and Ji Shan returned and revealed the information they had just gathered: "Inside the valley is a demonic force called the Green Gang, which specializes in human trafficking."

"Among them are twelve people of the ninth rank, five people of the eighth rank, and two people of the seventh rank."

As he spoke, he took out a newly drawn map of the valley, which marked the buildings and defensive layout inside, as well as the residences of these cultivators who had reached the highest level.

The content was exactly the same as Gu Jinzhao's, with no difference whatsoever.

Mo Zangfeng's eyes widened, clearly surprised.

It wasn't just the Green Gang's strength, but also Gu Jinzhao's mastery of fate analysis, which had reached such a level.

Now he completely believed what the other person had said before, and had no more doubts...

Lin Qingci pondered for a moment, then said with a serious expression, "According to the person we captured, the two seventh-rank individuals are Chen Qing, the leader of the Qing Gang, and Ma Yang, the deputy leader!"

"The former is a seventh-grade perfected divine cultivator, while the latter is a seventh-grade perfected body cultivator who has already developed half of a martial spirit."

The martial arts system corresponds to the divine system. From the ninth to the seventh grade, one hones their physique and bones; at the sixth grade, one develops martial courage; at the fifth grade, one condenses their martial spirit; and at the fourth grade, one achieves a golden body!

It can be said that before the sixth rank, body cultivators were subject to divine cultivators because they lacked the means to deal with the killing of the soul.

But once he reached the sixth rank, he developed martial courage and had the means to deal with it.

"I never expected that the small Green Gang would harbor so many hidden talents!"

Mo Zangfeng stood with his hands behind his back, his tone heavy, clearly feeling the pressure.

After all, his cultivation level was only at the late stage of the seventh rank.

As the second senior brother of the Qingyun Sect, he naturally has many trump cards, so dealing with a seventh-grade perfect cultivator is not a problem.

However, if we add another seventh-grade body cultivator, it will be quite difficult.

After pondering for a moment, Ji Shan said, "This matter should be reported to the sect; it's beyond our ability to resolve!"

Her and Lin Qingci's task was merely to investigate the missing children case; if they had the ability to rescue them, they would naturally do so as well.

It's clear that even if the four people in the arena join forces, they can't shake the Green Gang, so they have to ask for help.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zangfeng frowned, somewhat unwilling.

Asking the sect for help would only prove that he, Senior Brother Mo, is incompetent.

If it were Jie Hongchen, he might have charged into the valley and fought his way in and out seven times.

As if he had just thought of something, he looked at Gu Jinzhao: "What does Junior Brother Gu think?"

"Please call me Yuanfang..." Gu Jinchao said calmly, "We four are more than capable of destroying a mere Green Gang. Why would we need to ask our sect for help?"

Why did he accompany Lin Qingci to Yunhe Town?

Besides killing evil cultivators to cultivate the "Six Elements True Demon Technique," he also has to stop this conspiracy targeting his uncle, Yu Fengzhi.

If that's the case, then we can't let Yu Fengzhi come!

Because once she arrives, how will I be able to sacrifice these evil cultivators to level up?

Most importantly, the Green Gang still has Wang Teng, a true disciple of the Xuan Shu Sect.

If Yu Fengzhi knew that Wang Teng intended to sacrifice forty-nine boys and girls, and that he was using a secret technique from the Blood River Sect, then he would surely die, and even if his father, Wang Xuan, were to come in person, there would be no way to save him.

Why?

Naturally, it was because when the Qingyun Sect leader, Master Bai Mei, sealed away Yu Fengzhi's painful memories, he told her that her parents had died at the hands of evil cultivators from the Blood River Sect.

This made her hate evil cultivators to the core, especially those from the Blood River Sect.

Mo Zangfeng asked, "Junior Brother Gu, do you have a solution?"

Ji Shan and Lin Qingci both turned their gazes toward them.

Gu Jinzhao revealed a meaningful smile: "Qingci told me before that she had refined a colorless and odorless drug called [Bewitching Incense], which can knock out cultivators below the eighth rank directly."

"Cultivators below the eighth rank will be greatly affected, only able to exert up to 20% of their strength, and will frequently fall into illusions."

"While the souls of seventh-grade cultivators are already powerful enough, they can still frequently fall into illusions."

Ji Shan was shocked: "Is there such a powerful sleeping potion?"

Gu Jinzhao's expression was somewhat subtle as he looked at Lin Qingci: "Qingci is quite accomplished in the art of alchemy!"

After all, in the harem mode, he was drugged by Lin Qingci with the [Bewitching Incense].

At that time, she applied the bewitching incense to her body, mixing it with the perfume, so that it was completely undetectable.

Praised by her senior brother, Lin Qingci blushed slightly: "I just practiced it casually in my spare time!"

Ji Shan frowned slightly: "But even if we have the bewitching incense, it's impossible for everyone in the entire valley to be affected, right?"

Gu Jinzhao revealed a meaningful smile: "Senior Brother Mo has already cultivated the sword intent in the 'Lone Goose Sword Technique'."

"When this sword intent is unleashed, it is as if a lone wild goose with frost-covered feathers takes flight and soars across the sky."

"Where it passed, clouds surged and swept across the fields, making it impossible to discern human figures!"

"The first line of the sword manual, 'The sword rises like a lone wild goose, the mist swallows ten thousand miles of clouds,' comes from this."

Mo Zangfeng's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood his idea: "Junior Brother Gu means that I should use the Lone Goose Sword Intent to create a thick fog, engulf the Bewitching Incense in it, and swallow the entire valley?"

But then he paused slightly, saying, "If a thick fog suddenly rises, the evil cultivators in the valley will surely become alert."

Gu Jinzhao said calmly, "The Green Gang is located in a valley, where the fog is extremely thick in the early morning."

"If we make our move at dawn, they won't suspect anything."

Ji Shan was still somewhat worried: "Even if they are all under the influence of the Bewitching Incense, we can ignore the twelve ninth-rank officials, but there are still five eighth-rank officials and two seventh-rank officials!"

"Although they will be affected, their combat strength is still far superior to ours!"

Gu Jinzhao assigned the tasks: "You and Xiaoli each pick one Rank 8 item, and the rest can be left to me and Senior Brother Mo."

Ji Shan blinked: "Who is Xiao Li?"

The calico cat, which was dozing in Gu Jinzhao's arms, poked its little head out and asked, "Who called me?"

Gu Jinzhao looked at the two women: "She is a spirit beast, and her cultivation level is comparable to that of a ninth-grade cultivator."

"Adding you two, one mid-ninth rank and one late-ninth rank, is enough to deal with three eighth-ranks under the influence of the Bewitching Incense."

"You just need to keep them occupied, and after Senior Brother Mo and I have dealt with the others, we will come to help you."

Lin Qingci gently bit her lip: "Wouldn't that put Senior Brother and Senior Brother Mo in great danger?"

Mo Zangfeng said calmly, "The path of cultivation is inherently fraught with danger. If one is always looking back and forth, how can one move forward?"

His words were tantamount to finalizing the decision and finalizing the action plan.

……

Before dawn, a thick fog had already filled the valley.

The night watchman rubbed his eyes: "Why does the fog seem thicker today?"

Another henchman spat into the fog: "There are always a few days each month when the fog is exceptionally thick. What's the big deal?"

"Instead of thinking about all this nonsense, I should think about which brothel to go to for some fun tonight..."

Speaking of brothels, one of the men next to him suddenly became excited: "I heard that several beautiful young women have recently joined the Flower Moon Pavilion..."

"I prefer mature and voluptuous women. The madam at Bixue Tower is quite nice, with big breasts and round hips. How about we go to this one?"

"You can even eat those old scallions, you're really not a picky eater."

"What do you know? Old scallions are good for cooling down..."

The group walked arm in arm toward their lodging in the valley, their lewd laughter escaping their lips.

Just as they arrived at their lodgings, before they even opened the door, everything went black, a dizzying sensation swept over them, and they collapsed to the ground with a series of thuds.

Almost simultaneously, four figures, taking advantage of the thick fog, silently slipped into the valley.

Following the location marked on the map, Gu Jinchao moved like a ghost towards the residence of one of the eighth-rank officials.

Chapter 60, Gu Jinzhao, a Model of Righteousness (3K)

"This thick fog...something's not right!"

The eighth-rank evil cultivator noticed that his spiritual energy was sluggish and that he was feeling drowsy. His expression changed drastically.

Before he could finish speaking, a rusty iron sword had already pierced his chest.

His eyes widened as he stared intently at the boy who had suddenly appeared before him: "Who... are you?"

"I am your fellow Daoist."

Gu Jinzhao grinned, revealing eight white teeth, raised his hand to grab his neck, and then activated the "Six Elements True Demon Technique".

hum-

In an instant, streaks of pitch-black runes surged forth, transforming into a vortex that unleashed a terrifying suction force, directly drawing the opponent's soul and vital energy into its body.

In the blink of an eye, a living person turned into a shriveled corpse.

This scene is exactly the same as the demonic technique of stealing essence in the demonic path.

Gu Jinzhao casually swung his sword to destroy the body and cover up the evidence, so as to prevent the Qingyun Sect from discovering anything when they sent people to investigate later.

"His martial arts have actually reached the highest level!"

"The method of achieving quick success is indeed extraordinary!"

Feeling his ever-growing blood and qi within him break through to the ninth rank of martial arts, he narrowed his eyes, his figure flickered, and he rushed towards the location of the next "fellow Daoist".

Upon noticing something amiss, the evil cultivators would surely take pills or use secret methods to suppress the effects of the [Bewitching Incense], and then gather together to prevent being defeated one by one.

Therefore, he must be fast and quick.

A quarter of an hour later, two more eighth-rank evil cultivators perished under Gu Jinchao's sword.

"The enemy is attacking! Be careful, everyone!"

At that moment, a furious roar echoed through the valley, and invisible sound waves swept out like a raging torrent.

The surrounding thick fog was instantly dispelled.

"It seems that Mo Zangfeng has already clashed with Chen Qing."

Gu Jinchao narrowed his eyes and rushed towards the center of the valley.

He has already killed three eighth-rank officials. The remaining two eighth-rank officials will be dealt with by Lin Qingci, Ji Shan, and the three-flowered cat, which should not be a problem.

Boom—

Just as they arrived in front of a central pavilion, a loud explosion was heard.

A figure as ethereal as a lone wild goose was seen locked in fierce combat with another middle-aged man in a green robe.

The middle-aged man was none other than Chen Qing, the leader of the Green Gang.

Although the opponent was at the peak of the seventh rank, he was completely suppressed by Mo Zangfeng's sword.

"Boss, I'm here to help you!"

Suddenly, another figure in a yellow robe darted out, his aura surging like a dragon, each step he took causing the air to rumble.

Without a doubt, this person was another seventh-grade body cultivator at the peak of his cultivation, and also Ma Yang, the deputy leader of the Green Gang.

"Your opponent is me."

Just then, a rusty sword fell from the sky, like a crimson meteor crashing to the ground.

Boom—

The bluestone floor shattered with a crash, and the blazing sword intent, like a blazing sun, raged out, turning the surroundings into a sea of ​​fire.

Ma Yang sensed danger the moment his opponent drew his sword and retreated several feet in an instant.

When the smoke and dust cleared, a handsome young man dressed in a blue and white sword robe stood before them.
